Michelle Williams and Thomas Kail Welcome Baby No. 4: A Growing Family and a Red Carpet Return

In a heartwarming update for fans, actress Michelle Williams and her husband, director Thomas Kail, have quietly welcomed their fourth child together, marking their third as a couple. The news, first reported by People and confirmed by Page Six on April 3, 2025, reveals that the baby arrived via surrogate six weeks prior, adding another chapter to the couple’s evolving love story and family journey. The announcement coincided with a stunning red carpet appearance by the pair at the New York premiere of Williams’ latest project, the FX on Hulu miniseries Dying For Sex, which debuted on April 4, 2025.

A Quiet Expansion of Their Family

Williams, 44, and Kail, 48, have kept their family life relatively private, but sources close to the couple shared their joy with People, noting, “They couldn’t be happier to expand their family.” The new addition joins the couple’s two other children: 4-year-old son Hart, born in June 2020, and a 2-year-old whose name and sex have not been publicly disclosed. Williams is also a devoted mother to her 19-year-old daughter, Matilda Ledger, whom she shares with the late actor Heath Ledger.

The family has reportedly been spotted around their New York neighborhood, with Matilda taking on the role of a doting big sister. “Matilda has been doting on her younger siblings,” a source told People, highlighting the close-knit dynamic of the blended family. This new chapter comes as a testament to the couple’s commitment to building a loving home together, a journey that began when they first crossed paths professionally.

A Love Story Born on Set

Michelle Williams and Thomas Kail’s relationship began in 2018 on the set of the FX miniseries Fosse/Verdon, where Williams starred as the legendary dancer Gwen Verdon and Kail served as executive producer and director. The project earned Williams critical acclaim, including a 2019 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited Series. Their professional collaboration soon blossomed into a personal connection, with the couple getting engaged in 2019 after Williams was spotted buying baby clothes in London, as reported by People.

The pair made their first official public appearance as a couple at the 2020 Golden Globe Awards, where Williams won Best Actress in a Miniseries for her role in Fosse/Verdon. Just two months later, they were photographed wearing wedding bands, confirming their marriage in March 2020. That June, they welcomed their first child together, Hart, followed by their second in October 2022. Their third child together, born in February 2025 via surrogate, further solidifies their partnership, which has been marked by mutual support and shared creative passions.

A Red Carpet Return at the Dying For Sex Premiere

The announcement of their new baby came alongside a rare public appearance by Williams and Kail at the New York premiere of Dying For Sex on April 3, 2025. The FX on Hulu miniseries, based on the podcast of the same name by Nikki Boyer, marks Williams’ return to acting following a hiatus since her role in Steven Spielberg’s The Fabelmans in 2022. In the series, Williams plays a woman diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer who ends her 15-year marriage to explore her sexuality, a role that promises to showcase her emotional depth and versatility.

Photos from the premiere, shared by Page Six on X, captured the couple in a moment of joy. Williams stunned in a flowing, lavender gown with a deep neckline, while Kail looked dapper in a classic black suit. The images—one of Williams smiling solo and another of the couple sharing a tender moment—reflect their happiness both as partners and as new parents. The backdrop of the event, featuring the Dying For Sex logo, underscored Williams’ return to the spotlight, a moment made even more meaningful by the personal milestone they were celebrating behind the scenes.

Balancing Motherhood and a Thriving Career

Williams has long been open about the challenges of balancing her career with motherhood, a topic she addressed in a January 2023 interview with Entertainment Weekly. “My heart obviously belongs to my children; they tug at it the most,” she shared. “But I really want to be able to have both. And I think that it requires deep thought and learning and the support of other women to figure out how to get through it.” Her commitment to her family is evident in her decision to take a step back from acting in recent years, focusing on her children while selectively choosing projects that resonate with her.

Kail, a Tony Award-winning director known for his work on Hamilton and In the Heights, has been a steadfast partner in this journey. The couple’s shared history in the entertainment industry has fostered a deep understanding of each other’s professional demands, allowing them to navigate the complexities of parenthood and their careers with grace.

A Legacy of Love and Resilience

Williams’ journey as a mother began at 25 when she welcomed Matilda with Heath Ledger in 2005. Ledger’s tragic passing in 2008 left Williams to raise their daughter as a single mother, a role she embraced with strength and dedication. Her marriage to musician Phil Elverum in 2018 ended after a year, but her union with Kail has brought a new sense of stability and joy. Kail, who was previously married to actress Angela Christian, has also embraced fatherhood with enthusiasm, now a dad of three with Williams.

As Williams and Kail celebrate their growing family, their story resonates as one of love, resilience, and the beauty of second chances. The arrival of their fourth child, paired with Williams’ return to the screen in Dying For Sex, marks a new chapter for the couple—one that fans will undoubtedly continue to follow with admiration and warmth.
